Chapter 754 The failed man
(It’s a pity that I posted it the wrong way round. If what you see is the same as the previous chapter, please refresh the previous chapter.)
Huihara Ai read the tiny words on the note.
"Little Spider..." Mao Lilan's face began to turn blue: "Martin-kun turned into a spider?"
Of course, the image that came to her mind was a black, hairy spider with eight long legs, that crawled very fast, and had eight red eyes...
Even imagine that at this moment, above your head, just behind your neck, there is a big black spider hanging upside down on the wall, and then falling down little by little along the spider silk.
Ahhhhhh…my hairs are starting to break. I don’t want to play anymore!
"Judging from the words, it should be a very small spider." Huiyuan Ai analyzed calmly: "The ink was probably made by the rabbit, and then he used the spider's legs to dip in the ink and write on the note."
"Could it be one of those little spiders that are only the size of a fingernail?" Miyano Akemi guessed, and then turned around: "Xiaolan! Close the door quickly! Maybe Martin is hiding in the carpet!"
If it really was a small spider the size of a fingernail, it could easily escape their sight by simply moving through the fibers of the carpet.
If Martin had run away from the door while they left it open, the difficulty of finding him would have increased tenfold.
Xiaolan quickly ran in and closed the door, then carefully searched the carpet under her feet: "If it was a small spider without hair, I wouldn't be scared."
Obviously, everyone tacitly agreed to play hide-and-seek and find Martin.
"But it's hard to find a little spider, just like killing a specific mosquito in summer." Xiaolan said as she searched: "Under the carpet, in the drawer, under the bed, in the pillow... There are too many places for it to hide."
Little Corgi: "Woof... (The back of the lid of the water cup, the back of the lid of the sewer... these places are also easily overlooked... Alas, you don't understand.)"
"If you want to find Martin, isn't there a professional here?" Miyano Akemi looked at the Poké Ball on the desk, and felt that she had found a loophole in the game, so she pressed the button: "Come out, little bunny~"
The Poké Ball shook, and there was no other reaction.
"Eh?" Miyano Akemi pressed again: "Isn't the little rabbit at home?"
"He probably ordered us not to come out." Huibara Ai guessed, "After all, he would definitely predict what my sister could think of. He ordered us not to come out, firstly to prevent us from exposing our location, and secondly, if we find him, we won't be stopped by him when we want to kill him."
"Ah..." Miyano Akemi was a little disappointed, and then teased her sister: "Shiho is getting more and more aware of Martin's thoughts. Is she someone who understands Martin?"
Haibara Ai stopped talking. Based on Miyano Akemi's understanding of her sister, she was obviously too embarrassed to admit it, but deep down she didn't think she should deny it.
The little Corgi wanted to start by smelling, but no matter where it sniffed, it could only smell the scent of air freshener, which might be just right for humans, but was very pungent for it. It would sneeze several times every time it sniffed carefully.
'I wish I wasn't a corgi, but a more sensitive breed that could be a drug-sniffing dog.'
Miyano Akemi looked back at the sneezing Corgi and realized that Martin had deliberately sealed its sense of smell with air freshener. Suddenly, she came up with an idea: "Why don't we go buy some insecticide!"
As for the rule Martin added at the end about not using pesticides, hum╭(╯^╰)╮, rules are meant to be broken.
Unexpectedly, when she proposed her idea, the first person to shake his head violently was not the kind-hearted Xiaolan, but the little Corgi who was persecuted the most by Martin. "Is it because Shinichi is a detective and must find him within Martin's rules?" She guessed what the little Corgi was thinking, just like it knew the true identity of Kaito Kid, but it was still very serious every time it went to catch Kaito Kid.
Unexpectedly, the little Corgi still shook his head. If the rules set by Martin were unreasonable, even as a detective, he would not be stupid enough to follow them.
Xiaolan at the side asked, "Do you think Shinichi that the insecticide mentioned by Martin in the rules is a trap?"
The little Corgi nodded.
Martin is not a sincere man. He probably really turned into a spider and should be afraid of insecticide. But since he wrote it down on paper, it makes people want to use insecticide. Insecticide is probably just a trap to waste time and will not have any effect on him. Insecticide can even help Martin escape or hide better.
Yes, this is the breakthrough in reasoning. Is there any situation in which the pesticide can make Martin's situation more favorable?
For example, if there are other creatures in the room that threaten him, such as insects? Will the pesticide kill those insects first?
But this is the presidential suite of a top-notch hotel after all, and the little Corgi hasn't seen any signs of insects in the past two days.
Or did Martin mention the pesticide to mislead people and make them ignore other methods? After all, he said "any means are limited", so if they were to go to extremes and set fire to the room, this guy would not be able to escape, right?
……
There were no more clues on the table. Huiyuan Ai jumped off the stool and looked around. The row of carrots in the refrigerator was missing a carrot in the middle. There was a toothbrush with rabbit hair stuck on the handle in the bathroom. It can be seen that the rabbit moved around for a while this morning, brushed its teeth under Martin's urging, and ate a carrot for breakfast or snacks... After that, it probably did some work like opening the door lock and squeezing out ink from a fountain pen, and then was ordered to return to the ball and not come out for the whole day?
Thinking of this, Huibara Ai walked to the window.
Speaking of spiders, the most common image that comes to mind is of these arthropods weaving webs in window corners, under eaves, and the like. Did this guy run outdoors?
Thinking back to the message written on the note, it seemed that he never said from the beginning to the end that he would hide in the room waiting for them. Could it be that he had already run to the window, hid in some corner, and then watched through the glass as they foolishly rummaged through the drawers in the room, and even sprayed pesticides?
No... Huiyuan Ai shook her head. Spiders can only see a small distance in front of them, and they mainly rely on vibration to sense their prey... If Martin turned into a normal spider, he would not be able to see their movements clearly outside the window.
Yes, if it was him, he wouldn't be content to hide in a secluded place and sleep, right? He should hide in a place where he could see them making all kinds of attempts to find him and watch everyone laugh at him?
Where is it? A place where you can have a panoramic view of the room but also be hidden away...
While looking around, Haibara Ai suddenly paid attention to the window again and found a strand of brown curly hair in the corner of the window... That was not her own hair, it should be rabbit hair.
The rabbit's fur is stuck on the window? Could it be... hehe, hehe...
Haibara Ai suddenly sighed. It seemed that she was too confident before and thought she understood that guy.
That guy must have gone off to play somewhere in London with the rabbit, right?
……
Somewhere in London
"My spider sense tells me that my trick has been cracked." Martin, who had taken off his Spider-Man helmet, suddenly shuddered and said to himself, "This is too fast. The great detective is so successful? It should be Ai, right?"
He used toothbrush bristles to write small words and carry insecticide, deliberately inducing them to think that they had turned into ordinary animal spiders and hid in the room to play hide-and-seek with them. Martin thought this trick could last until noon.
"Chi, chi, chi!" Rabbit suddenly grabbed Spider-Man Martin's arm and pointed to the place diagonally across the street.
"Oh, there's something exciting over there? Hi, hi, hi! Reporters here!" Martin immediately took out his press card, used his powerful spider-like physique to push through the crowd and rushed in to report the first-hand news.
